Engage – active learning approach
Empower –social equity and character development
Achieve – high quality work and mastery of skills and knowledge
Believing all scholars can achieve, AXL embodies the growth mindset to present authentic and real experiences to scholars using Expeditionary Learning. We do this with integrated curriculum, intentional character development, and expeditions that are uniquely designed to bolster a love of learning and empower each scholar to find their place within their crew and within their community. Everyone belongs at AXL and diversity is celebrated.
